It's time to recap Week 2 of the Dog League season. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)
Tailwaggerz
After getting blown out last week, it was a much closer affair for Tailwaggerz in Week 2, although the result was still the same. Much of their downfall came from playing three starters(Jordan Howard, Jordy Nelson, Jimmy Graham) that all combined for less than one point. There were positives to take away from the game, though, and the main one was overall top scorer Tom Brady, who rebounded from Week 1. The overall close score and games elsewhere did mean that Tailwaggerz actually moved up in the standings, to third place.
Week 2 Scoring(lost to Ridiculous Rascals 89.38-98.9)
QB Tom Brady(30.78 points)
RB Le'Veon Bell(9.1 points)
RB Jordan Howard(0.7 points)
WR Jordy Nelson(0 points)
WR Mike Evans(15.3 points)
TE Jimmy Graham(0.1 points)
WR Doug Baldwin(4.4 points)
K Stephen Gostkowski(12 points)
DEF Baltimore Ravens(17 points)
Leaping Girl
Another week, another loss for a Leaping Girl squad that is steadily going backwards. The big problem this week is that nobody really bothered to even show up for the game, with only two players(Drew Brees and Delanie Walker) getting into double digits. It's also worth noting that Leaping Girl also left 15 points from Alshon Jeffery and almost 12 points from Dez Bryant on her bench. Emma's got to get things sorted out, and soon, or else this will be a sinking ship.
Week 2 Scoring(lost to Tug of War 72.54-124.78)
QB Drew Brees(22.24 points)
RB LeSean McCoy(4.3 points)
RB DeMarco Murray(2.8 points)
WR DeAndre Hopkins(7.3 points)
WR Amari Cooper(3.3 points)
TE Delanie Walker(12.2 points)
RB Dalvin Cook(6.4 points)
K Justin Tucker(6 points)
DEF Seattle Seahawks(8 points)
Ridiculous Rascals
It hasn't been pretty, but Ridiculous Rascals are now 2-0 on the season. They were down by over 50 points early on Sunday, but crawled all the way back, with Matt Bryant delivering the win with 14 points on Sunday night. With only three players in single digits, this was a strong team performance by the second best team in the league. Jordy Nelson's injury in that Sunday night game was a serious asterisk in the win for Rascal, as was Ezekiel Elliott's poor game, but Rascal has to be happy with this game as a whole.
Week 2 Scoring(won against Tailwaggerz 98.9-89.38)
QB Derek Carr(21.2 points)
RB Melvin Gordon(13.8 points)
RB Ezekiel Elliott(2.2 points)
WR Brandin Cooks(4.3 points)
WR Tyreek Hill(4.9 points)
TE Rob Gronkowski(17.6 points)
RB Marshawn Lynch(10.9 points)
K Matt Bryant(14 points)
DEF Arizona Cardinals(10 points)
Tug of War
If anything, Week 2 proved that no one is ready for Tug of War. It was another easy win from the defending champs, with the result never in doubt. Todd Gurley and Kareem Hunt led the way, with only Antonio Brown and Dan Bailey finishing in single digits. Impressively, the bench put up 71 points as well, proving that this team has no really weaknesses. How do you defeat Tug of War?
Week 2 Scoring(won against Leaping Girl 124.78-72.54)
QB Matt Ryan(14.88 points)
RB Todd Gurley(23.6 points)
RB Kareem Hunt(22.9 points)
WR Julio Jones(10.8 points)
WR Antonio Brown(6.2 points)
TE Travis Kelce(16.3 points)
RB Leonard Fournette(12.1 points)
K Dan Bailey(7 points)
DEF Kansas City Chiefs(11 points)
Stay tuned later this week for the preview to Week 3, which features the Ridiculous Rascals facing Tug of War in a top of the table clash.
